Raw Women’s Title Rematch, Sasha Banks & Bayley, More Set For 6/8 WWE Raw

The women will take center stage on WWE Raw with Charlotte Flair, Asuka, Sasha Banks, and Bayley all set to appear.

WWE announced a rematch between Charlotte and Asuka for the June 8 WWE Raw. The two women battled last week with the match ending in a disqualification following interference by Nia Jax. It was not clarified if Asuka’s Raw Women’s Title will be on the line.

From WWE:

Even with a WWE Backlash showdown against Nia Jax looming, Asuka still can’t shake her rivalry with Charlotte Flair as they’ll meet Monday .

The Raw Women’s Champion battled The Queen last week on Raw only to have her upcoming challenger emerge to derail the clash. Jax wasn’t satisfied with simply mocking her WWE Backlash opponent, as she later demolished her with a charge down the ramp.

Flair will also be motivated after losing the NXT Women’s Title at NXT TakeOver: In Your House. Perhaps a rematch with one her most heated rivals is exactly what The Queen needs to put her back on a championship course.

Who will write the next chapter in this classic rivalry?

Also set for Monday’s Raw is an appearance by the newly crowned Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks & Bayley. The duo defeated Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross on SmackDown to reclaim the titles. WWE is teasing that they will make an “impending announcement.”

From WWE:

The blue brand belongs to Bayley & Sasha Banks, but the “role models” are far from content. The newly-crowned Women’s Tag Team Champions are set to appear on Raw after defeating Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross to reclaim the titles.

Never short on proclamations, the double champion & The Boss are set to divulge an impending announcement on the red brand.

What will Bayley & Banks have to say following their clutch triumph over Bliss & Cross. How will the Raw Superstars respond to the presence of the Women’s Tag Team Champions?

Previously announced for WWE Raw:

* Christian hosts The Peep Show with Edge
* The Street Profits face The Viking Raiders in a decathlon.
* Bobby Lashley joins MVP in the VIP Lounge
* Rey Mysterio set to appear
